Middletown was the scene of a bloody encounter Saturday night and that there was not a lynching bee was simply due to the good judgment of Mlddletowu's citizens. Two men today lie In a serious condition; one, Captain IJohn Sullenoerger, the well known old hermit who resides at the state dam and who has been written about numerous times in this paper, It fatally cut and cannot live but a few hours. James Rlley, a well known citizen of Middletown, is slashed and cut In an awful manner, but the physicians think he will recover. The man who used the knife with such dreadful result Is Thomas Kelly, called Kelly, a notorious tough.

The bloody affair occurred in O'Connell's saloon. About 9:80 o'clock Sullen- and Rlley entered the place and orderedjtwo beers. While standing at the bar engaged in conversation, Kelly entered, and it was at once seen that he was looking for trouble. Advancing to where Sullenberger and Riley stood, he yelled that he could whip anyone in the place, at the same time using a vile epithet. The captain turned and pleasantly remarked that he could not get any trouble there.

This remark only Intensified the man's drunken frenzy, and, with "I'll give you a fight," be jumped on the old captain with the ferocity of a demon, at the same time knock- Ing him down with a savage blow from a beer glass on the temple. His murderous spirit wat now fully aroused and drawing a wicked, looking dagger, he slashed the already nncontclout man at hit feet. Again and again the hard steel left gaping wounds on the body of tke old man, until tbe blood wat spurting from tix wonndt, any one of which wat In a region to vital at to cause death. at tke beginning of the melee endeavored to attltt hit friend and disarm the enraged Kelly, but the latter only parried him off.
